[GUIDE] What are Crypto Airdrops?

[God Of Thunder]

If I didn't look at your reply here, I will not know that the schedule is at 26th of June. More than 3 weeks from now. Thanks for sharing.

I also did not know the exact date. But I knew that the TGE was at the end of June. Meanwhile, people gathering as much as blast points and gold as they can. I made some mistakes in the early days by focusing on gathering blast points. But then I realized that I should focus on gathering blast gold instead. A single blast gold worth more than 100K blast points. So, I should farm gold.

It is strange that Paldo.io did not listed any blast ecosystems dapps on their website. I have picked Districtone, Blastr and Thruster finance to farm blast gold. I believe Blast chain and the Base chain is hot Cake in this bull run. I am expecting a good return!

The standard is around 5%-15% most of the time. Most of the time the teams announce airdrop allocations when they're close to TGE.

there are many current projects do make airdrop allocation announcements when approaching TGEs,
this is to reduce speculation about the project so that no wild speculation occurs.

In general, it only provides a 5%-15% allocation for airdrops, but it depends on how much airdrop participation.
Above 10% with selected airdrop members who are not too many will get a sizable allocation

Huh! you are calling yourself not a community manager, I think you should as how are you going to make a profit if you don't consider yourself a community manager, I think you already have a tg and managing that community, like providing new airdrops, their answering there questions, makes you a community manager.

Ok I'll add additional context. The "community managers" are directly hired by the projects themselves. I am not. I personally just have my own website.

Huh ! is this what we call a community manager?

TBH to make a profit in the Airdrops, you don't need to be a community manager, but yup there's no doubt that these B-grade Twitter Airdrops, provide higher incentives other than the refer reward for marketing their project airdrop in their community. Most of the time Airdrops get abused by these influencers and in most cases only influencers make profits, not the community.

Nope lol. I've made good amounts even before I publicized my list. And even today, I barely get anything from referrals because the majority don't even want to risk money LPing and such.

And again, not every good airdrop has a referral program.

Same old repetitive sh*t.

Claiming faucets here and there, minting NFT's here and there, making transactions here and there. That's your daily routine with Berachain and it also came to a point for me that I don't want to do it anymore hence, I also quit doing it. One more is that the requirements for us to be eligible isn't released online yet. What if us testnet users will not be given any reward when the airdrop launch? Effort wasted. Time wasted.

Contrary to popular opinion, these testnet airdrops are there to reward testers — not just give away free tokens just because. So if you refuse to actually test, then fair game it's probably not for you. It's like applying to a software tester program and then refusing to do the job.

As for eligibility, projects typically don't publicize eligibility criteria to prevent sybils — and so people actually test the product entirely and not just do the minimums to end up being eligible.

Unfair comparison with job, in job you know you are going get paid and what you are getting paid has value, doing testnets, you don't know whether you will be given reward in first place, and if they actually decide to reward whether it will have some value.

As for eligibility, projects typically don't publicize eligibility criteria to prevent sybils — and so people actually test the product entirely and not just do the minimums to end up being eligible.

What do you mean with testing the product entirely when you are handed over same repetitive tasks each day, every day and the product is same as hundred other available in market?

If it's no longer interesting, leave it. Most airdrop hunters also need certainty in order to fulfill requests and be able to get prizes at the end. If from the start there is no clarity regarding the requirements, or even no clarity "is there actually an airdrop program or not?" then leave.

It is important to read the initial agreement so that you can get mutually beneficial cooperation between both airdrop hunters and developers. If you need each other, then you should respect each other.

Because of the popularity of airdrops, there are even some people in our country, who even initiate to conduct a mastering airdrop course. It's a good initiative, actually. But the only thing I disagree with is they require a participation fee. LOL.

Not much of a fan as well because there's so much free info on the internet(like this one!). But hey, I guess creating a seminar does require a good amount of time and effort, so I'm not really against it.

Paying a fee is okay with me as long as an income through airdrop is guaranteed but with the influx of scam projects, airdrops are almost worth nothing now. I participated in some airdrops many years ago, five years to be specific, and earned a little with so much effort so I stopped doing it until now.

That's literally incorrect if you look under the hood but if you think that's the case then simply don't use the product and let those who are interested use it? I don't see the problem here. It's a free market literally no one is forcing you to participate.

That's literally not true lol. Like I said in a past reply, airdrops today are nothing like airdrops many years ago. Like, it's literally night and day.

We've been in the cryptocurrency for a long time (I assume), and we know that money through the airdrops isn't "GUARANTEE". Heck, there's no such thing as guaranteed in the world of cryptocurrency, so I really despise those cryptocurrency gurus who are taking advantage of those newbies by making a course, and selling it to them, and the contents of that course is something that we can learn basically "FOR FREE".

Paying a fee is fine, but with a course regarding airdrops? I don't think so, and I saw this post in Facebook, and obviously, those who are knowledgeable about airdrops find this funny and a cash-grabbing opportunity for these so-called gurus. I just participated in airdrops just this year after a long break, and luckily, I'm one of the many investors that got the DYM for free.

I doubt with your experienced around five or four years later for participating in airdrop but not received yet huge amount, recently difference with airdrop values right now but in last several years ago many easily airdrop just fill the form and worth it above $50 until $100 when some coins listing only at ethermarket exchange. Did you remember with this exchange and I know how many user if go back around several years ago excited with airdrop has good values.
Right now need to pay fees for getting airdrop but still speculation when the end of airdrop have values or not, but must brave for paying fees when joining airdrop right now if want get bigger reward later.

We should forget about airdrop at this time because now almost airdrops are fake but on the contrary you can participate in bounty if you want because now there are some good bounty hunts. However some new projects are entering the market and forming partnerships with old coins, and there are small amounts of money from airdrops.
Also many people are making good money from telegram mining bot so you can research that. But most of the airdrops you get on twitter media are fake.

It's like hitting two birds with one stone, they charge you for teaching them then they require you to join in their referral links, what's the difference some people will pay or even share their profit if you join them in their airdrop links, these people who charge fees are opportunities they can't even guaranty if these airdrops will have value.

Trend right now with many people making money from telegram mining bot and make daily tap to earn many coins from mining, success of Notcoin as the first making money from telegram trough bot make some developer initiative make similar project with not.
I doubt after looking how enthusiast with this project mining way and most user joining will get small reward later when the coins have been mainnet or keep worth it although million users are participating. Less choose for us because bounty most scam right now and we need be careful looking potential bounty campaign.

Notcoin did something somewhat different and got success, now other projects are going to milk the hype of the same. However, now whatever comes from here following the path of $NOT will likely not see much of success as $NOT and reward will not be worth as it either, if any as it'll be dilluted by many people farming it.

This is what I have seen with other projects and this is what is expect from projects arising from NOTcoin's success. I'll be happy to be proven wrong, and see people making money from this stuff.

I've heard a lot about NOTcoin, but if I enter now at the current price, is it still worth holding until at least the end of the bullrun season? Is this one of those hype projects that has finished its hype or is it still sustainable? So, is it true that Hamster Kombat is the next Notcoin?

Indeed, I found a lot of tap tap games that are almost similar. Like Hamster Kombat, and many more and so on. But I don't know which one will really be worth it later.

I don't know any better in these projects than you do, one thing I can say though — clicker games are monotone and I see no future in them.
